About this map

Shavers Fork and Glady Fork define the riverine character of this West Virginia mountain landscape, where the Western Maryland railroad follows the winding banks through the heart of the Monongahela National Forest. The settlement of Bowden serves as a central point for the local community, featuring a Fish Hatchery and proximity to multiple recreation areas like Bickle Knob, which is marked by the prominent Bickle Knob Lookout Tower. Resource extraction and land management are visible through numerous labels for Strip Mines, a Tipple, and several gas wells scattered across the terrain.
